A powerful landowner in Hawaii faces mounting tensions as family dynamics and personal relationships clash with political ambitions. As societal changes reshape the islands, long-held beliefs regarding class, race, and tradition are challenged, forcing a reckoning that threatens the stability of a prominent legacy.

Diamond Head is a 1962 Eastmancolor drama romance film starring Charlton HestonYvette MimieuxGeorge Chakiris, and James Darren, directed by Guy Green, and released by Columbia Pictures. The original music score was composed by John WilliamsHugo Winterhalter composed the theme, and Darren sang the title song. The soundtrack album was released by Colpix Records (CP 440). It was released on compact disc in 2006 by Film Score Monthly paired with Lalo Schifrin's Gone with the Wave[5]

Silent film star Billie Dove makes her last film appearance in a brief cameo. It was the first film credit for screenwriter Marguerite Roberts after she was blacklisted for nine years.

Plot

Richard "King" Howland is a swaggering land baron living on the Big Island of Hawaii. He objects when his sister, Sloane Howland, announces she plans to marry Paul Kahana, a native Hawaiian, though Richard is having a torrid affair with an Asian woman, Mai Chen. During Sloane and Paul's engagement party, Mai Chen's brother attacks Richard with a knife. Paul tries to break up the fight and is killed. Bitter at her brother for Paul's death, Sloane runs off to Honolulu, where she is taken in by Paul's brother, Dean, and his family.

Meanwhile, Mai Chen gives birth to Richard's child, but dies during childbirth. Richard refuses to accept the child, so Sloane takes it upon herself to care for the baby. After an angry fight with Sloane and Dean, Richard is confronted with a personal dilemma—whether to continue on with his close-minded ways or to welcome his newborn son into his family.

Note

Although the story is based on the novel by Peter Gilman,[6] the screenplay by Marguerite Roberts makes several significant changes in Gilman's story. Several characters are eliminated, including Richard's father, Richard's wife, and his hapa haole (half-Hawaiian/half white) half-brother. Roberts also changed the ending of the story.

Blended races: some day all races will be blended. "What's the harm in that?" said the blonde. How annoying. Only a 1960's movie would give an ignorant line to a pretty, immature blonde girl. Hollywood's take on interracial relationships.
